Las Vegas Resort Fees 2015

Las Vegas Resort Fees 2015 Guide


What are the Resort Fees?

In recent years most Las Vegas hotels have implemented “resort fees”.
These daily supplementary charges are not included in the initial booking cost (when booked through the hotel website or via a third party). The fees are due to the hotel at the end of the stay upon check out.
In return, these supplementary fees allow access to some of the services within the facility.
For several years these resort fees have been a source of contention as consumers believe that they are, in many ways, hidden charges. Indeed, they are managed completely independently of the quoted nightly room rate so, upon booking, the price per night offered never takes into account the resort fees which can create confusion for the customer who finds out only when he has pay the bill at the end of his stay.
In November 2012, the Federal Trade Commission (the consumer protection body) threatened 22 US hotels with sanctions because of these practices and requested that these costs be made more explicit upon booking.
When making your hotel reservations, either directly on the hotel websites or through tour operators, we advise you to be very vigilant about the significant amount of these resort fees in order to take them into account in your travel budget! This is why we’ve compiled below the complete list of hotels charging these fees along with the amount charged (note: the amounts are given before taxes which, at present, would add an additional 12%). You will notice that the highest fees reach $29 before tax which is $32.48 including tax per night! (In some cases, the resort fee can be higher than the room rate!)
